Sylvanas calls for battle! In World of Warcraft, the first quests that will herald Battle for Azeroth are now accessible.
In exactly three weeks, on August 14, 2018, the release of World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth will take place. To bring players up to speed on the story, there is a small pre-event – the War of Thorns.
How to start the “War of Thorns” event in WoW
The first quests for the pre-event “War of Thorns” are active from today, July 25, 2018, in World of Warcraft! Just log into the game with a character at the maximum level and the quest should appear on its own.
Both factions are working against each other. Players of the Alliance must try to protect Teldrassil and gather the few remaining troops. Civilians must be rescued and the most must be made of the few resources, as the main force of the Alliance is on the other side of the world.
The Horde, on the other hand, is carving their way through Ashenvale and doing so quite brutally. First, Astranaar falls into their hands and serves as a new base from which they will move into Darkshore.
At the provisional end of the quest, there is a stalemate situation where both sides are waiting for reinforcements – even though the Horde’s are much closer.
World quests as fillers. To pass the time, there are world quests at Darkshore that offer solid gear. If you do not see the world quests immediately after completing the last quest, then log out of the game and back in. Also, make sure that you do not have outdated interface addons activated.
Keep in mind that at the very end of the questline, in the coming weeks, there will be an exclusive mount for both Horde and Alliance. Every player should at least complete the questline on one character to secure the mount.
How do you like the War of Thorns so far? Is this a worthy event for the start of Battle for Azeroth?
